Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Je te laisserai des mots
En dessous de ta porte
En dessous de la lune qui chante
Tout près de la place où tes pieds passent
Cachés dans les trous, dans le temps d'hiver
Et quand tu es seule pendant un instant

Embrasse-moi
Quand tu voudras
Embrasse-moi
Quand tu voudras
Embrasse-moi
Quand tu voudras

Translation, you're welcome:
I will leave you words
Underneath your door
Underneath the walls that sing
Very close to the place where your feet pass
Hidden in the cracks of your sofa
And when you’re alone for a moment
Pick me up
Whenever you want
Kiss me
Whenever you want

Sorry for your loss, my great grandpa died 2 years ago. Fly high great grandpa, you'll be beloved forever, and in my heart, forever and ever. 🕊 🕊 rest in peace great grandpa, everyone will remember you as the best. You fought cancer with all your strength and will forever be missed. Spread this message to others, i just can't stop crying, my great grandpa was so nice to me, but he didn't need to be passed and incinerated to ashes. I still have my great grandpas ashes. Fast forward to now, i still remember him, i saw this excavator toy and knew I had to take it. My parents denied buying it, but I bought money, so I bought it on my own and wrote my great grandpas name on it, to remember everything he has done to me and my family. Fly high great grandpa with your excavators 🕊 🕊.


Please Remember to love you parents, grandparents, god, friends, great grandparents, parents friends and etc, you never know how someone is going through and sometimes you don't know what will happen with them, they could be harmed by satan, so you should best acknowledge them in a grateful manner and accept what they have to offer and not be picky. Pickiness results in bad luck or even death to your loved ones. Just keep this in mind, In case I die at any stage this will be my last message.

Peace out everyone, i wish you the best and hope you recover from everything

Let me pray for you guys real quick

Oh dear father pray over these souls as they have done nothing and flourish them with love and peace and let them have a great life and spend it wisely with good choices, oh heavenly father please give these souls another chance at life, in your mighty name, AMEN

see you guys, when I see you next time, you will always be watched over and loved with peace and love, do not fear what has come and always be brave 😭 Bye.........

Music is transcendent. I have no idea one word he is saying but it’s one of the most beautiful songs I’ve ever heard.

@nelgameel4279

I just looked up English translation. The song is even more beautiful when you understand it.

@Tweedmann

Its amazing how music about love does not have a single word about it in lyrics but everybody gets it anyway

@djpower8791

@@nelgameel4279the translation is exactly what it sounded like when I didn’t know what it was saying. It’s so universally beautiful.

@xXDerangedGamerXx

My mother died a month ago due to an aneurysm. We found her on the couch at home, half-seated and still with a cigarette in her hand. I miss her, even though she had been suffering from depression for years and She was not the same from very long. SHe won't be able to see my degree, My wedding and the birth of my son. The only thing that cheers me up a little is that she stopped suffering, but the fact that I will never be able to hear her voice, kiss her or hug her again is destroying me. I don't know why I'm writing this here, I just hope, one day, I can feel her smell again and be hand in hand with her again. Bye mom, have a good trip
